We hope we find you all in good sprits after Christmas :)) Sprits are high here in the 3valleys with the forecast of snow for the week ahead!!! It has been a lovely sunny week with a few snow flakes here and there, the pisteurs have been working hard with the snow cannons getting lots of pistes open. They managed to go from 113 pistes at the beginning of the week to 163 today and from 69 lifts to 114. At the moment 3 Valleys is the best place to be skiing in Europe (well… in our humble opinion it always is! ;)) Despite the lack of proper snow fall this past week all of our guests and chalet hosts have been skiing away this Christmas. We even had a Christmas Day engagement between the hosts in Chalet Ecureuil, Dave got on one knee at 2305 m and Sarah said yes! Forecast for next week The temperatures have dropped below freezing today in La Tania and Meribel and are set to only get colder as week goes on. The snow cannons are on blowing the snow all the way down the Folyeres run into La Tania so fingers crossed it will be ready and open for next week! The most exciting news is that we are set for a big snow storm this weekend 27th & 28th of December with anything from 25cm to 50cm of fresh snow being predicted in resort. It might mean that the transfers form the airport will take longer, but keep in mind you’ll arrive in a winter wonderland 😀 We are so excited for the snow at the weekend, it should improve the conditions from pleasant to amazing!! 😀 We are also expecting the temperatures to drop well below 0’C with Tuesday forecasted to be as low as -20’C so pack that extra jumper in you suitcase especially if you are planning on celebrating New Year’s Eve outside! Lower temperatures mean that snow canons can produce snow lower down the mountains and the snow should stay in good condition under blue sky for the rest of next week.
